Real Madrid Legend Marcelo's 16-Year-Old Son Signs First Pro Contract With Los Blancos

Real Madrid has officially secured the future of academy prospect Enzo Alves, the 16-year-old son of club legend Marcelo, by having him sign his first professional contract. The deal, formalized on Monday with his parents present, includes a significant release clause intended to deter interest from European rivals and lock down his long-term future at the club.

Alves, a prolific striker at Real Madrid's Valdebebas academy, has generated significant attention with his physical development and goalscoring. Club insiders describe his progression as "stratospheric," noting he is nearing 200 goals as an academy player. Unlike his father, a left-back, Enzo is a powerful forward who has already played for the U19 and reserve teams, making his Castilla debut in a high-pressure match against Manchester City.

His rising stock is also evident internationally. Despite being part of the 2009 birth year, he has been integrated into the Spain U17 squad (2008 generation), where he served as captain and made an immediate impact with a goal and an assist in his second match.

While carving his own path, Enzo benefits from the support of his father, Marcelo, who attended the contract signing and has been present at key moments, such as his Castilla debut. Enzo appears to be thriving under the expectations that come with his famous surname, celebrating his new contract on social media to his millions of followers.
